Mars enters Scorpio with the Moon in sextile aspect at 0 deg Virgo, a working relationship intent on accomplishing the task at hand. Preparedness for security is advised as Uranus in Taurus is in opposition aspect to Mars in effect for several days, influence most likely 20^rd – 26^th.  Also, Mercury turns direct motion on the 20^th, also in Scorpio in the 2^nd decant, communication improves with a fast forward pace. The Sun ingress to Sagittarius on the 22^nd and Venus into Capricorn on the 26^th helps to create a more progressive atmosphere.  We could have a violent backlash over the weekend, however as the Mars-Uranus opposition aspect culminates. However, with a positive approach, a transformation can take place under this influence, before the New Moon on November 26^th at 3 deg Sagittarius.

Summary of Major Aspects of the Week

Wednesday November 20^th – The Moon in Virgo is sextile aspect (60 deg, friendly) to Mars in Scorpio and trine aspect to Uranus in Taurus triggering the opposition aspect (180 deg, challenging) between Mars and Uranus that becomes partile over the weekend. The Moon could facilitate caution, and a more favorable outcome today . Mercury stationary direct, turning on a dime, in Scorpio at 3:30 PM EST. The work done today, in view of a probable upset, or unexpected reversal, prepares the ground for the full thrust of Mars energizing Uranus and can prevent a radical take-over.  Sun in a semi-sextile aspect to Jupiter gives a sense of accomplishment, a mild euphoria.

Thursday November 21^st – Mercury direct in Scorpio is doubly approaching a trine aspect (120 deg, flowing) to Neptune retro in Pisces. There is an increase in conspiracy theories and psychic phenomenon. The Moon in a trine aspect to Pluto in Capricorn reflects on large gatherings, or principled activists for save the planet environmental cause. The Moon in a square aspect (90 deg, harsh) to Venus and Jupiter in Sag reflects the political success of diligent work. A celebratory mood is generated. Then the Moon is sextile aspect (60 deg, friendly) to the Sun as the waning Moon relates to the accomplishments of the cycle, an assessment can be made. The Moon ingress to Libra late in the day, as hopes for peace and justice are expressed.    

Friday November 22^nd – The Sun ingress to Sagittarius today, as two contrary aspects draw near. Mars in Scorpio in opposition aspect (180 deg, tense- possibly explosive) to Uranus, and Venus closes in on the conjunction aspect (0 deg, combining) to Jupiter. As the conflict in Hong Kong reaches a climax, a victory in claimed for control and containment. These aspects reach partile on Sunday, simultaneously, taking the edge off the powerful Mars–Uranus opposition aspect that indicates a tendency for self-destruction.  There is a reward for the cessation of violence, and the possible peaceful resolution.

Saturday November 23^rd – The Moon in Libra in a square aspect (90 deg, harsh) to Pluto triggers the use of destructive force, or perhaps international intervention. The force of destructive rioters is blocked by a superior power (one scenario), or invasive measures are rejected by orders of the high command (another scenario).  The end of the conflicting arguments seems near.

Sunday November 24^th – The Moon transit of Mars in Scorpio triggers the opposition aspect (180 deg-tense) to Uranus. When too much tension accumulates, there is the tendency for a strong release, and with Mars and Uranus that would be accompanied by violent outbursts. The Sun in Sagittarius is trine aspect (120 deg, flowing) to Chiron retro in Aries, an aspect that could mediate the effect of the Mars-Uranus opposition aspect to some extent. However, another possibility of the combination is that violence is the result of a philosophical position, a terrorist organization, for example, or a political act of retribution. Venus and Jupiter combine with the conjunction aspect at 28 deg Sadge. The conjunction of the two beneficent planets of the solar system brings joy to many. So it is a confusing day, over all. As often happens in our complex universe, suffering and joy can happen to different people on the same day, unrelated to a central event. The joy may not be related to the cause of the suffering. The Moon transits Mercury in Scorpio overnight (US time) although daytime in the East, as profound announcements as made, concerning a death toll, as conflicts reach a moratorium.

Monday November 25^th – The Moon trine aspect (120 deg, easy) to Neptune reaches partile (exact aspect) as the depth of the turmoil is reflected in the painful revelations. The Moon then forms a sextile aspect (60 deg, helpful) to Saturn in Cap, and a few hours later to Pluto in Cap, as the focus shifts to the responses of those in authority. Venus ingress to Cap by evening, as the voice of authority gains in tone with a luster of accomplishment.  Mercury in a trine aspect (120 deg, flowing) to Neptune voices the experiences of the victims.

Tuesday November 26^th – The Moon ingress to Sadge early in the day, with the New Moon just hours away, and in a trine aspect (120 deg, flowing) to Chiron, you put your best foot forward. The New Moon in a quincunx aspect (150 deg, complex) to Uranus in Taurus prompts soul-searching as we realign with our philosophical views. Mercury trine to Neptune implores us not to forget the suffering that goes into the production of products we depend on, suffering such as child labor and abject poverty.
